Remembering Jim Henson

[Twisted Tails]

I know it's a little late and today is May 19th meaning two days before Jim henson's funeral twenty-two years ago. It has the puppeteers including Karen Prell, Mike Quinn, Kathy Mullen, Jerry Nelson, Dave Goelz, Steve Whitmire, and a special cameo, which is Philp Balsam. Okay, here we go, guys.

Prologue
May 19th, 1990 after 4:00p.m

Karen was living in her house for now, but the next day she has to go to New York the next dayher siting on her rocking chair sipping a nice cup of tea after she invited her next door neighbors (even though they were not her kids) to stay for a while until their parents could pick them up the next day. "I wish Jim were here so i can tell of story of how much fun Red Fraggle had with me." she thought.

Then there was a knock on the door and she knew it would be Red Fraggle by now. As she opened the front door, Red imediately started hugging her while Steve, Mike,Wembley, Mokey, Gobo, and Boober were standing there wondering what are they going to do with her.

"Red, what happened?" explained Karen.

Red sniffled and said, "Those fiends tried to kill us."

Karen felt angry for those terrible silly creatures since they acted like a bunch of "gorgs."

"I'm sorry, Red." said Karen. "I should of seen you earlier. This world has been crazy and terrible agaiin with Jim Henson now gone and it's not fair."

Red got confused after wipin her tears away. "Who's Jim Henson?"

Karen chuckled after she asked who the creator was. "I'll explain it you on the way to New York, okay?"

"Okay!" said Red with a sigh.

Then, she escorted to the Fraggle five to a guset room where the kids have a feeling they cannot wait to meet them in person. Next, she knew why they didn't come by themselves to California.

"Mike, how did you find them?"

"They were at an appartment with some bad people who loved to cage animals, but we can explain in your room for now. It's a long story!"

"All right, but as long as the children take good care of the Fraggles, I wouldn't mind."

 

[Twisted Tails]

Yesterday was the day when Jim Henson's funeral was held at St. Paul Memorial in New York. Chapter 1 & 2 are coming up right now.

Chapter 1
Karen was concerned about the way Red felt tonight. As Mike atarted walking back and forth, his wife started feeling antsy and said, "Honey, stop pacing around and tell me what happened to Red and her friends." Mike stopped and sat down on the bed with her and said, "Okay, here is what happened to them, Karen."
"Do you want me to interrupt?" Karen asked.
"No!" said Mike wiping the sweat off his forehead. "So, I went to Toronto right after you told me to look for the Fraggles since you and the Jim Henson team worked in Canada. Guess what I found out? Steve was with Wembley, but Red, Mokey, Boober, and Gobo were missing. Wembley explained that they split up to two pairs. So, he and Wembley decided to go one direction and then Red, Gobo, and Mokey went to another direction. Do you know what happened next, honey?"
"What?" asked Karen with a sad puppy look.
"Wembley said that Boober pushed him out of the way before the net caught him and the silly creature said, "Hey, I got a fwaggle!"
"It would a Fraggle, Mike." corrected Karen. "Was that human much worse than a gorg?"
Mike took a sip of water from a water bottle and said, "Yes, Karen! He was a bad bunny, but Steve finally found Wembley who was trying to find his friends. He then told me that something was suspicious and I saw a black truck. I wasn't stolen, but I found out it had cages of other animals, but they didn't speak. As the truck started driving away, we decided to follow that black f-150. We drove all the way to an abandoned apartment at the State of Seattle. When we got inside, there was no sign of the Fraggles. So, we followed that black truck again all the way to California to another abandoned apartment and I heard some singing. So, I went inside the house and there I saw them in a cage, but it doesn’t look like a gorg's cage. I imagined the song sounded like this:

Well they threw us in a cage and there's no key.
We gotta find a way that we can get free.
There's just one thing that might be found.
Gotta rock this joint till the bars fall down.

'Cause everybody here's gotta shout till we all break out.
Gotta rock our way to freedom.
Gotta roll right back and seat(?) 'em.
Gotta flip flop skipity hop,
Back to Fraggle Rock.

Mokey took a stick and she banged bars.
Red started rockin' till she seen stars.
Boober blew a harp like a wild thing.
Got myself a guitar and began to sing.

'Cause everybody here gotta shout till we all break out.
We're gonna rock our way to freedom.
We're gonna roll right back and seat(?) 'em.
We're gonna flip flop skipity hop,
Back to Fraggle Rock.

Back, back, back, back, back to Fraggle Rock (3 X's)

Don't need no key don't need bail.
Gonna bust right out of this old jail.
Gonna beat those bars till they drop their locks.
Gonna spring ourselves loose with the Fraggle Rock rock.

'Cause everybody here's gotta shout till we all break out.
We gonna rock our way to freedom.
We gonna roll right back and seat(?) 'em.
Gonna flip flop skipity hop,
Back to Fraggle Rock.

Gonna flip flop skipity hop,
Back to Fraggle Rock.

"Oh, I remembered that song!" said Karen with excitement. "I did Red's voice at a recording studio in Canada, even though I let someone else do her movements on the actual show."
"Anyway," said Mike after clearing his throat. Before Steve, Wembley, and I started talking to them, Boober said, "It's hopeless, Gobo! We're never gonna get outta here. Ugh! This place smells terrible and disgusting."
"That's Boober, alright!" said Karen laughing. "By the way, Dave told me one day that he chose to talk to Boober, because they both have the same worries about their days and goings."
"So, we finally took them out of the cage with a screwdriver and -"
"Screwdriver?" interrupted Karen. "Wait a minute, the cage had a lock and it was harder for them to get out."
"Exactly," chuckled Mike. "We got them out and I told them why they came out of Fraggle Rock. Gobo explained that since Uncle Matt was home, their fans send them postcards and letters that he found from Doc's workshop and it was sad news. Most of them said that Jim Henson, the creator, died, but they don't know who he was exactly. So, they went to "Outer Space" to find anybody who knows Jim Henson."
"I wish they could of been more cautious like Boober always was." said Karen with a stern look in her face. "I'm glad they came here, but the reason why we need them is because of Jim.
"So, they have to appear at Jim's Henson's memorial the whole time?"
"No, just for the song of "Just One Person."
"I see what you mean, honey, but I won't make it with you. Besides, I have to work and I would love you home safe and sound when you decide to come back home."
"What about Red? She's my best friend, but she's a Fraggle and I am her "silly creature."
"Well, promise me you let her decide if she wants to go back to Fraggle rock or not."
"I promise, Mike!"
**************************************
In the guest room, there were three children named, Trish, Amy, and Beth. After all the introductions from the Fraggles, the children listened to their story of how they got out of Fraggle Rock and not knowing Jim Henson very well. After their story was told, Trish then said, "Hey, let's act a story of The Three Wishes and instead of that we'll call it "The Friends that Always Complained. Red, you are the excited one, Gobo, you will be her friend since you love discovering things, and Mokey will be the Fraggle that gives out wishes.
"Whoopee!"
"Cool!"
"Wow!"
"What?"
(sighs)
"Trish," said Amy. "You have left Wembley out! He can be the flying creature with Mokey. Boober, do you want to act out?
"No thanks guys!" said Boober. "I'm going to help Karen with her laundry."
"Okay," said Trish. "We'll see you soon, then."
As soon as Boober left the guest room, the Fraggles and the children were excited. Then Trish said, "Since nobody volunteered as the narrator, I guess I am the narrator then. So here we go everyone.

Once upon a time there were two friends named Red and Gobo who lived down at Fraggle Rock and they lived in a same cave. They had doozer sticks and clothes to wear for the winter. They even had a baby tree creature and a doozer doing construction so they can have more doozer sticks. Every day, Gobo would go to the Gorg's garden to find radishes, but one day when he was about to get a nice pair of radishes, he saw a female Fraggle named Mokey, and she yelled, "Stop!"
"Huh?" said Gobo. "Who are you?"
"I am the Fraggle that guards your radishes and the Gorg's garden is my home." said Mokey.
"Okay, I will come get the radishes later." said Gobo.
Before he went back to the cave, Mokey stopped him and said, "Wait, before you go, I will grant you one wish for Red, one wish for you, and one wish with Red and Gobo.
"Thanks!" said Gobo. Then, he went back to Fraggle Rock to see Red.
When he got back to Fraggle Rock, Red brought him dozzer sticks and one small radish.
So, throughout the night, they argued and complained of what they want at Fraggle Rock until the next day Gobo said, "Boy, I wish I had a nice medium radish."
Then there was a mist and the medium sized radish appeared in front of him.
"You're crazy, Gobo!" yelled Red. "We got three wishes, you got a radish, and I don't get one. I just wished your radish was on your nose."
Sure enough, there was a scent of mist and the radish went onto his nose.
"Now look what you did, Red," screamed Gobo. "Now get this radish off my nose."
Red tried and tried to pull it off but it just wouldn't budge.
"We could had a doozer, a Fraggle, or a new hat, but I can't go to Outer Space with a radish on my nose." said Gobo.
Red thought and then said, "Wait, Gobo! We have one wish left and we should say it together."
So, they took a deep breath and said together, "We wish the radish off of Gobo's nose and a flying creature."
Then there was a gush of mist and the radish was off of Gobo’s nose. Also, the flying creature appeared before their very own nose.
"Hi," said the flying creature. "You granted three wishes and you shall be my friend."
Gobo and Red laughed and realized that you have to be careful of what you wish for.
The End

"That was a great story, Trish." said Red excited.
"Yeah, that story was beautiful." exclaimed Mokey.
"Thanks guys." said Trish. Then she, Amy, and Beth looked at the clock and said together, "Oh no! It's past our bedtime."
"That's okay," said Red with a chuckle. "We're not tired yet except we sleep when Fraggle rock is dark."
"Wait a second!" said Amy. "I got a song! It was a song I used to hear when I was younger and I used to watch Fraggle Rock. It is called, "Our Melody."
"I thought it was "The Grand Medley." said Beth.
"It doesn't matter, Amy." said Beth. "It is just a melody."
Trish knew what to do and she said, "All right, let the melody start. Red?"

Red sings
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
"Mokey?"
Mokey sings with a high note
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
"Gobo?"
Gobo sings in a low note with his dee and das
"Wembley?"
Wembley sings with his bings and boings
Trish and Red sing:

Our melody
Come and sing it with me
It's a song where you know you belong.
Then, they all did the song in a round before they finished up with together with:
"Cause we know we belong to the song.

"That was fun. guys." said Amy. "Can you excuse us? We have to change into our night clothes if you are okay with our decision."
"Sure!" said Gobo. "Come on guys, let's go find our silly creatures. Maybe they know about Mr. Henson." Then, they left the guest room while Amy, Beth, and Trish started changing their clothes and discussing about their favorite Fraggles.
*******
Back in the living room, Jerry, Steve, Kathy, and Dave were discussing about plans for the funeral. Jerry decides to have a long talk with Gobo, Kathy wants a conversation with Mokey, and Steve would love to have a talk and some playtime with Wembley. However, Dave was worried about the event, because he knew he was going to have some serious talk with Boober. After he had a long talk with his performers, he went to the kitchen and found Boober helping Karen in the kitchen.
"Spices." said Karen. "Thanks, Boober! I need to go get some spices, okay? See ya later!"
After she was out of the kitchen. Dave came in and said, "Hi, Boober!"
"Hey Dave," said Boober. "I haven't seen in a long time."
"Thanks," said Dave. "The reason why I come to talk to you is that... well, there is a change of plans."
"What?" asked Boober.
"Well," said Dave. "I am going to a different Muppet or silly creature. I'm afraid you will get stage fright, Boober. You're afraid of height, allergic to dogs, and you're germaphobic. One advice to you is take it easy, okay? I don't want to get hurt and I would love you to sit with a kid. Maybe they will understand how you feel since Henson is gone."
Boober took a deep sigh. "All right! I'll do it!"
"Good," said Dave. Then, he gave Boober a big hug and went out of the kitchen.
A few moments later, Karen came back to the kitchen and said, "Hey, I got some spices to flavor my food for the kids."
"Not now Karen." said Boober with a sigh. "I'm going to go talk to the kids."
"Okay!" said Karen. By the way, thank you for helping me with the laundry and the cooking."
"You're welcome!" said Boober.
Then, he walked out of the kitchen to go find the kids.
*************
At the front porch, Jerry was lying on his back on the wooden bench swing while Gobo sat looking at the beautiful stars. Gobo thought about the time where he saw the stars back at Fraggle Rock.
"Gobo, I got some good news for you. said Jerry with excitement.
"What is it, Jerry?" asked Gobo.
"You're going to be at Jim Henson's funeral." explained Jerry.
"That's great," said Gobo. "Who's Jim's Henson?"
"Well, can I show you a photo of him?" said Jerry.
"Sure!"
Jetty took the photo out of his pocket and it revealed a colorful picture of Jim Henson in the middle and from left to right had Wembley, Red, Gobo, Boober, and Mokey with the Doozers in front of him.
"Now I know him." said Gobo. "I guess Bobber was scared of him.
"He was at first," said Jerry. "But Jim sometimes makes his day whenever he felt like something was wrong at Fraggle Rock."
"Yeah," said Gobo. "But look at the sky. Isn't it beautiful?"
"Yes, Gobo!" said Jerry. "I wish Jim were here, "I'm going to go back inside, all right?"
"Sure," said Gobo. "I just want to stay here for a while."
As Jerry went back inside the house. Gobo thought Jim would be one of the stars.
"Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight. I wish I may, I wish I might have the star I see tonight. Star, I wish that Jim is having a good time up there even though I'm down here. My friends and I are going to a funeral to pay a tribute to Jim. What are we going to sing? I know all of our fans are everywhere, but who loves us? I guess Jim loved us. Maybe we should look for each other and have a good time for ourselves. Jim, we miss you! Doc left us and now Jim! We all miss you! You never even said goodbye to us. Boy, I love being an explorer, but I wish Uncle Matt were here."
After Gobo took one last look at the night sky, he went back inside to look for his friends.
************
Meanwhile back in the kitchen, Karen was cooking some grilled chicken and fries for Trish, Amy, and Beth. Red then entered and smelled something that looked really good.
"Hi Karen!" said Red.
"Hey, Red!" said Karen. "What's up?"
"Well, I heard a conversation from the silly creatures."
"You mean from Steve, Jerry, and Kathy."
"Yeah!"
"Okay! Do you know who is Jim Henson is?"
"Well, sort of."
"Well, like your friend Mokey, he was a sketch while artist. He showed me how to create props for you and your friends and sometimes clothing. That's when I decided to help Jim with his work at Fraggle Rock while you and your friends had fun. So, I met Mokey and we had almost everything in common. We were dreamers, artists, and sometimes quiet. At the last moment, his team thought I would suit better with Red. Then, I let Kathy have Mokey while I was stuck with you. You were at first kind of shy and stubborn -
"I am not stubborn." said Red.
"Well, you were shy, but you began to like me since you have a lot of craziness and silliness in you. Remember the time when you wish you were Mokey. Well, just remember to be yourself. If one person believes in you, anybody can believe in you, Red."
"Where's Boober?" asked Red.
"He went to the guest room to talk to my invited next-door neighbors. Just remember, Red. Be yourself!"
"Thanks, Karen." said Red. "See you later!"
"Bye!"
As Red went out of kitchen, she knew what to tell her friends as she went carefully upstairs to the guest room.
*****************
Back in the guest room, Boober, Mokey, Gobo, and Wembley to talked about the good times and memories they had with Jim to Amy, Trish, and Beth.
"Well, speaking of songs, Mokey do you have a song?" asked Amt
"Well, there's a song I did after I was captured by a different group of Fraggles. I wonder where Jim would be right now, but maybe he hears my beautiful voice."

Sunlight and shadow,
And oak trees, bravado,
And rivers that race to the sea.
Puff balls, fireflies,
And larks in the sunrise,
All know a way to be free.
And here's to their roamin',
Here's to their homin',
Ah, how I wish it was me.
Pity a soul that's not free.

Ants have a highway,
And birds have a skyway,
And winds can go wandering far.
See how they climb,
In the mercy of time and,
They don't know how lucky they are.
And here's to their roamin',
Here's to their homin',
Ah, but I wish it was me.
Sit for a moment and pity a soul that's not free.

"Awesome," said Beth. "Mokey, I loved your song. Maybe Jim does hear your voice since he is up in heaven. I seen your show, but the world still has not a whole lot of peace."
"Hey guys," said Red.
"Hi, Red," said Trish. "Your back just in time, because we now want to hear a song that you and Boober id while you were caved-in."
"I knew that episode." said Amy. "But I had a near-death experience after I hurt my back from running down the stairs. When I ran, my foot felt like it slipped and I fell down from those stairs. It hurt so bad that I had trouble breathing and I thought I broke it. I realized that it wasn't broken, but it was very sore. So, I had to use a wheelchair. Before anybody could reach me, I feel asleep and when I woke up I was on my bed. I couldn't believe I survived that terrible fall I had from those awful stairs. I realized that I should walk, not run down the stairs."
"Before I woke up, the experience I had was Mr. Henson. Jim Henson! He told to have a good life and enjoy it. You see what I mean? Friendship is a great thing to have. Even though Beth and I are sisters, they call themselves friends too. Sure they don't have a lot in common, but they're still friends."
"Wow!" said Gobo.
"Yeah," said Amy. "I would call cave-ins a death trap."
"Okay," said Red. "If that song remind us of Jim, then I know he will be smiling down at us for doing this song.

Remember when,
Now and then,
Everything went wrong?
And then our friends would sing,
The friendship song.

Remember, Red?
You and I,
We'd nearly cry,
To know their love was strong,
And by and by,
We'd start to sing along.

We sang,
Try a little longer,
For your friends.
Try a little a stronger,
For your friends.

You work all night.
You work all day.
You still can't keep,
Those worry blues away.

Try a little longer,
For your friends.
Try a little a stronger,
For your friends.

Life comes up.
Life goes down.
There's just one way,
To keep it,
Going 'round.

Try a little longer,
For your friends.
Try a little a stronger,
For your friends.
(Repeat)

Remember when,
Now and then,
Everything went wrong?
And then our friends would sing,
The friendship song.
"Well, I am really tired, but I didn't bring any music. Oh, I wish Jim were here." said Amy.
"Amy," said Trish. "You know Jim is gone, but he lives in us and we love him very much.
"Wait a minute," said Beth. "Maybe a lullaby or slow music will put us to sleep."
"Yeah!" said Amy. "If the Fraggles will sing, we will go to sleep."
"Just like they lull Junior Gorg to sleep." said Trish. "Okay, Mokey you start, then, Wembley and Red and Boober will do backup."

Cold moon,
Lonely as can be,
Sailing where the starlight fades to blue.

Don't you,
Sometimes feel like me,
Wish the friends you dream about were true?

And they would sail away with you.
Sail away with you.

Some day,
You may tumble down,
Sad because your light is nearly through.

Moon stay,
I will search around,
Climb until your light is bright as new.

And then I'll sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.

After the song, Gobo falls asleep right after Wembley and Mokey got tired and went to sleep with their head down. Red and Boober quietly walked out of the guest room and went to Karen's bedroom. Karen was there with her night clothes on. She gave Boober a colorful blanket which was similar to the one he got from the Trash Heap to make him brave right after he was feeling' blue. Boober got worried about his blanket. "What if Red touches my blanket?" said Boober.
"Don't worry about her." said Karen. "I'll handle with Red."
"Thanks," said Boober. "I'm getting tired. I need some shut eye."

Miss muppetfan24/7 out!

 

[Dominicboo1]

Good use of songs. It's good how both the Fraggles and their perfomers exsist together! Very very good! Warmth is what's needed in Muppet productions, and this is a good example!

 

[Twisted Tails]

Thanks guys! I knew Jim Henson wanted warmth in those characters, but since he is gone, it is very hard to not think about the creator who did Kermit, Fraggle Rock, Sesame Street, and the Muppet Show.

 

[Twisted Tails]

Sorry about the wait! I had summer jobs and applications and a counselor job on my mind. Now on to Chapter 2!

Chapter 2
May 20, 1990 after 1200a.m. (very late & early)

Trish tossed and turned and couldn’t sleep without thinking of the creator who made the Muppets popular on television and movies. Then, she woke up Amy.
“Trish,” croaked Amy. “It’s still late! What’s wrong?”
“Well,” said Trish. “I am not a child. I’m a college girl and I didn’t tell the Fraggles about how old I am.”
“That’s okay,” said Amy. “Everyone makes mistakes.
“Amy, you sound like Big Bird that’s silly and six years old.”
“I am not, Trish. I’m in high school and I have to go to school on Monday when Jim Henson has his funeral.”
“You’re jealous, because I got out of college for the summer.”
“I’m jealous, because you go wherever you want. You have a car and I can’t even drive.”
“Shhh!” shushed Trish. “You’ll wake up the Fraggles.”
“”I might as well, Miss Perfect. You think you are so childish.”
“I am a grown young adult. You’re thinking that Fraggles are a bunch of silly creatures.”
“I did not say the Fraggles were silly creatures. I said they are a bunch of underground silly creatures from CANADA.
“Amy, now Gobo Fraggle is waking up. So, why don’t go to sleep and stop being so paranoid at me.”
After Amy was asleep, Gobo Fraggle was already awake from the entire racket they made.
“What’s all the ruckus?” said Gobo.
Trish started feeling bad for waking up Gobo and started to cry.
“Gobo, I’m sorry,” cried Trish. “I didn’t mean to wake you up. I woke up Amy and then we had this argument. She’s so stubborn sometimes. She didn’t watch Fraggle Rock, because her family didn’t have cable. I don’t get it, Gobo. I’m too upset to talk to Amy right now.”
“Where’s Red and Boober?” asked Gobo.
“They probably went Karen’s bedroom. They’re going to be okay.”
After a long quiet conversation, Trish let Gobo sleep next to her since there was room for two people. After they said goodnight to each other, they drifted of to sleep. However, Amy couldn’t sleep this time. She realized that Fraggles were not just silly creatures, they were her friends. Most of all, she missed her parents, but most important, she missed Jim Henson and Kermit. Then, she walked to the window quietly and looked up into the dark with one star shining bright in the night sky.

Then, she took a deep breath and sang,
One little star, all alone in the sky

Do you ever get lonely as the twilights drift by

Back in Karen’s bedroom, Red couldn’t sleep and looked at the night sky with one beautiful star and sang,
One little star, in the darkening blue

Do you long for another just the way that I do?

In the hallway, Boober carried the colorful blanket and small light weighted bed with him. He believed that the night sky was beautiful even though he couldn’t see it.
Sky begins to fill; darkness ends the day
Someone who I love is far away.

Back in Karen’s bedroom,
One little star, reaching far through the night
Do you shine on my someone? Are we sharing your light?
Oh, one little star, shine on us both tonight.

Meanwhile, in the guest room, Amy said,
Gee, I wish Kermit was here to sing me a lullaby,
and Mr. Henson was here, and we'd all be together.
I wonder what they're all doing tonight up there...

Amy, Red, and Boober sing, but in harmony, and then end the song together.
One little star (one little star)
Reaching far through the night (reaching far through the night)
Would you shine on my someone (shine on my someone)
So we're sharing your light? (please, share your light)
Oh, one little star, shine on us all tonight.

After the song, Amy went back to sleep in the guest room, boober went back to sleep with his colorful blanket underneath him to keep him warm, and Red finally went back to bed to sleep next to Karen. Everyone knew that tomorrow was going to be a long day.

Please understand that since Gobo did the song in a fraggle fan fiction where Red ran away for being angry to her friends of going to the Cavern of Sparkling Lillies, I made a tough decision to let Boober do this song so I can a three part song just like Big Bird, Olivia, and Snuffleapuagus or Snuffy did the song in the Sesame Street movie, Follow That Bird.

 

[Twisted Tails]

Trish, Amy, and Beth are humans and they are basically Muppet fans that they love including Fraggle Rock. Trish grew up watching show and later in this story, she might have a crush on Boober. Amy on the other is in high school and believes that the week of May 21st might be her last week of school. Beth is Amy's sister, but she is the opposite of Amy. Just like Boober. she likes quiet days than to party and always bundles up whenever any room in her house gets cold. She's also very quiet and loves to nap. Before I go to another, Boober is going to relax and maybe a nice long walk -
DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!
Boober how did you get here? You know this is Outer Space and -
I'll think I'll take a walk.
Well, I hope he gets back to Fraggle Rock safely. Where was I? Oh yeah! He's having a nice quiet night with plenty of sleep.

 

[Twisted Tails]

Well, here is Chapter 3 that has a nightmare and the part where the puppeteers and the Fraggles get on a plane for the first time. By the way, I am doing my best to stay in character for the Fraggles even this is my first time to pay a tribute to Jim.

Chapter 3

Trish entered a dark cave which looked more like a Fraggle cave. She was so scared that she got lost.
"Hello," called Trish. "Wembley? Red? Mokey? Boober? Mokey? Where is everyone?"
She had a bad feeling that something wasn't right about where she was? Before she could speak, she heard laughter echoing form the tunnels.
"That better not be a Gorg." Trish said to herself.
She called again and said, "Hello?"
She heard the laughers of the creatures coming closer. She realized that there were not Fraggles, but a bunch of cave or small monstrous creatures. She started screaming and running through tunnels until she ended up in the Terrible Tunnel.
"Is this where Wembley went here all by himself?" she asked himself.
Filled with terror, she saw the moving shadows which made her herself, but instead she sings a song to maybe make her feel less terrified.

I'm not scared of staying out or hanging 'round when ghosts appear.
I'm not scared of anything except of being here.
I'm not scared of skeletons or spooky caves or big, black cats.
I'm not scared of anything, except something like that.

Then, the big winds whipped so hard that she accidentally stepped in a creature and before she disappeared, she screamed for help. After trying to scream, she was gone with a cloud of smoke.

It was six o' clock in the morning and she woke up screaming.
"What an awful dream!" Then, she started crying and patted her face with a tissue to get rid of the tears streaming down her face. She hoped she didn't wake up Gobo with her screaming or when she was talking in her sleep. Then, she found Gobo and his friends eating their Doozer sticks. Now she was relived that they were okay and not in peril. However, she wondered where Boober was. Tiptoeing out of the guest room, she came across a hallway and found Boober awake from his sleep. When he saw a silly creature, he got scared.
"ACK! Stay away! You'll carry diseases!"
"Whoa!" yelled Trish. "I don't have a disease yet and I am not sick."
Now she felt like the way she talked to Boober didn't seem right. Then she cleared her throat and said,
"Let me start me over. My name is Trish Johnson, but you still can call me Tosh. My friends call me Tosh, because they believe Trish is such a silly creature and grown up since they found out I watch Fraggle Rock."
"Tosh?"
"Yeah!"
"I want to go home."
"Well," said Trish. "So, you're homesick! Maybe I can love you."
"I don't want you to love me,” sighed Boober.
"Okay," sighed Trish. "You probably like me and we can be just friends. How about a song?
"Oh no! Not a silly creature song!"
"Boober, just try to listen to me."

Do you like me?
Am I okay?
Do you like me?
If you do please say,
That you like me,
Just this way.
I want to hear it from you.

("Oh, Tosh!")

("No, really, Boober.")

Do you like me?
Do you think I'm swell?
Do you like me?
You know me well,
If you like me.
Won't you tell?
I want to hear it from you.

We always have a super time,
("Sometimes!")
When we play and sing a song.
("What?")
But I wonder if you still like me,
Even when I do things wrong?

("Oh, Tosh!")

(Sighs) Yes, I like you

("Really?")

That is true.
Oh I like you.

(That's great!")

Can we just be best friends?
I like you.
Now can we can we best friends til' the end?

("Sure! I don't mind!")

Now that you've heard it from me.

("Oh goodness, thanks Boober. I need to change right now.)"

(All right, goodbye!"

("Goodbye! (Pause) Oh, but, um, Boober?")

("What now, Tosh?")

("I like you, too, Boober.")

("Oh ... (sighs)")

“Oh, this is my friend, Red,” Karen said. She looked at Red with a smile on her face. “We don’t exactly look like each other, but we both have the same craziness,” she said with a laugh. Except for their differences, Red and Karen were wearing their same red sweaters.
“I’m the one that wins, Karen,” Red said excited, looking out at the two girls who started to laugh with her, not at her.
“We both win, Red, ‘cause we’re best friends,” Karen muttered and the girls including Red laughed.
“So, the plan is you and your puppeteers friends are going to New York including the Fraggles?” asked Amy.
Beth started laughing, but Karen got irritated by the way Amy’s best friend was acting differently. “Now look, Beth we are trying to help you, not make you as a joke.” she began, but Amy was not offended by the female’s request at all.
“I know,” explained Amy. “Trish should watch over Boober and take him to New York.”
“No way,” warned Beth. “What if he gets hurt or comes back to his home sick.”
“Girls,” began Karen. “If I can handle Red, then I will talk to Trish. I will promise her that she must keep an eye on Boober. Dave’s right! The red-haired Fraggle should take it easy and none of us want him to get hurt.”
“Okay,” sighed Beth. “I will calm down and not laugh at anyone anymore.”
The two girls then watched Red and Karen mapped out a plan while the puppeteer was jolting down notes on a notebook. She realized that she has to take the notebook with her so she knows what the plan is.
“There is bad news,” Amy said sadly. “Beth and I can’t make it to Jim’s funeral and we have to go to school. So, since our friend Trish is going to New York. I hope she comes back here home and safe.”
Then, the girls knew it was time to go back to their homes. They gave Red and Karen a hug and said their last goodbyes with their bags packed and ready to go.
“Come on Red,” said Karen. “We’re almost ready for the trip to New York.
*******************
There were those who believed that the Fraggles and their fellow puppeteers existed to each other, but there are others that don’t have the magic that Muppet fans do. After what seemed a long car ride to the LAX airport. The Fraggles and their friends made a grand entrance. At first, they started fighting at each other, but eventually got along with each other. After going through their check through and the security, they were ready to go an airplane and face some excitement and challenges. However, Karen didn’t want to go to New York without her husband and started sobbing.
“Karen, don’t cry and get upset.” Insisted Mike. “You’re going to be okay and you’ll be fine at Jim’s funeral.”
“Mike,” began Karen. “Bernie called and he said for all of us not to wear black according to Mr. Henson’s request. Plus I know that the Muppets are supposed to be at the funeral as well.”
“I am going to miss you when I’m gone,” said Karen. “I really promised Red that I would be with her tomorrow.”
“Who is she with?” asked Mike.
“Gobo,” explained Karen. “Red is going to be sitting with Gobo.”
“Honey, the people are staring at us like we are making a scene.”
“Oh, sorry! I am still going to miss you. It’s hard to let you go and you have to go to work soon. By the way, we got our tickets and I got boarding tickets already.”
With no other choice, he rummaged into his backpack and found a handkerchief for his wife to use.
“Thanks,” cried Karen. “I needed that.”
“Before you go,” Mike began. “Can we have a goodbye.”
“All right,” insisted Karen.
After a quick kiss on the cheek and then on the lips, Mike told her to make her getaway immediately before she misses her plane. After the puppeteers had a long talk with the airplane officials they promised that the Fraggles and their silly creature friends will be protected and safe without any harm done.
Mike knew that his wife was leaving for a while. He made a speech and said,
“Honey, you’re going on that plane right now, but I will tell you this. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow, but soon for the rest of your life. However, don’t leave your friends and please come back to California safe. One more thing, I love you. They will love you no matter what Muppet you are with.
“Honey,” began Karen. “I love you too.”
After on last hug for goodbyes, she went out of the gate to the tarmac, which led to the plane.
“Ma’am,” Karen said to stewardess.
“Yes?”
“Does this plane go to New York?”
“Yes ma’am!”
“Thank you!”
Then, she immediately found Kathy Mullen and sat to next to her to talk about the good times they had with their Fraggle friends on the production of Fraggle Rock. Red was with her best friend, Gobo, Mokey was with Wembley, and Trish was sitting with Boober so they get a conversation about their differences.
Back at the airport, Mike slowly touched the cold glass window as the plane slowly went to the runaway and then at the end of it, the plane took off and Karen was gone for now.
“Good-bye, Karen.” Sobbed Mike. “Here’s looking at you, kid.”

 

[Twisted Tails]

Happy Memorial Day, everyone! Well, I cannot believe I got no reply on my third chapter. Collgoff, bandit and Yorick? I hope you are having a good Memorial Day too and you might be reading this fan fiction story ASAP. I might as well go to Chapter 4. I will warn you that there might be a sad part or an emotional part So, grab your teddy bears or your Fraggle plush toys for any of you Muppet fans out there.

Chapter 4
Friendship was always a bond that forms into two pairs to have forever until they are no longer with you. The Fraggles have sung songs to each other with a little help from their silly creature musicians Philip Balsam and Dennis Lee. Karen and her good friend Kathy realized that the Fraggles, puppeteers, and themselves have put themselves into first class. It was a relaxing place where they don’t have worry about noise and anyone complaining about the world being nothing but a wasteland filled with disaster and corruption. Everyone was interested by the way Trish put her lavender gloves on and put her hair up into a bun. Besides, that silly creature had long hair and very good looking.
“Oh, I am now so protected since I don’t like germs either,” Trish cried with excitement. “By the way, I love doing laundry, but I am not very good at cooking.”
“Keep it down, Tosh,” warned Boober.
“I’m sorry,” whispered Trish. “I just can’t wait to see New York, but I miss my parents including my dad.
Before she began her story about her dad, Red, Gobo, Wembley, and Mokey gather around like she was going to be a storyteller.
“Well, I am fan of Fraggle Rock and I watched it every Saturday morning and I was interested at all of you. Like Traveling Mat, he went on vacation even though he didn't tell us where he was going. One time, I had a brother and he was a Jim Henson and Fraggle fan too, but he died in a awful accident and… I never saw him again. I don’t know where my father is, but I-I can’t help it. Before your show came to an end, my friends called me Tosh and that nickname stuck me. It’s not fair that I have only my mother around. So, I don’t think there is going to be any peace in my neighborhood anymore.”
“Gosh,” said Gobo. “That's bad!"
“I know,” cried Trish. “I don’t want to lose him, but I am scared of everything. That includes germs, insects, and ?I hate words that start with the letter H.”
She started sobbing with her tears streaming down her face. Then, she took out her handkerchief and wiped out the wetness from her face before putting the wet handkerchief in a plastic bag and putting it in her purse.
“Can I get you anything for you two?” asked a friendly steward.
“Blanket!” insisted Boober.
“A blanket and pillow for me, please, said Trish.
Right after the steward left, Trish started feeling uneasy. She missed not only her mom and dad, but her best friends Amy and Beth. She wondered what they would be doing instead of going on vacation with her. She couldn’t help it, but rest would probably calm her down for a while.
**************
Meanwhile back at the aisle where Karen and Kathy were sitting. They didn’t say anything for a while, but she didn’t want to be quiet.
“Did you say goodbye to Mike?” asked Kathy.
“Yes! Now we are going to be a long trip to New York.” Sighed Karen.
“I heard that Dave doesn’t like New York much, but he has to be there for Jim. “
I had heard him reminiscing that he always remembered Jim who was a sketch artist, director, producer, or writer. The Fraggle characters are not only ones who got hit by Jim’s passing.
“What else?”
“The Muppet Show household character and Sesame Street.”
“That’s so sad, Karen,”
“Well, I know that four out of five of the Fraggle clan will be at the funeral to pay a tribute to him.”
“Anyone else that I kind of?”
“At the last song, there will a bear, whatever, go-fer or Scooter, grouch, penguins, and other characters.
“I see, Miss Prell. You better not forget that those Fraggles cannot leave the magic, but they will have the magic with them no matter where they go even if it does lead them to their home.”
“Thanks, but I don’t understand why Red or her friends haven’t told anyone of what happened to Cantus the Minstrel.”
“Maybe they are keeping it a secret or he is up at the sky with Jim Henson looking down at us.”
“Now look who is being the dreamer like Mokey?”
“Well, Fraggle Rock will never be the same without Jim.”
“No,” said Karen sadly. “But they will still have each other. They will live as one group even though they love to do different things.”

“Finally, I see sometimes fascinating which is a Fraggle,” sneered the man with a sheepish grin.
“What are you doing here?” said Trish angrily.
“I want to se that Boomer of yours.”
“It’s Boober, you jerk. Now give us some space.”
“Well, now that your boyfriend is out of the picture, miss. Why don’t you and I have a drink and make you love me for-
“No,” snapped Trish. “Stay away from me and Boober. Now get out of here.”
“Fine,” said the man angrily. “I will pick on somebody else then. Have a nice day, miss.”
Then, he stomped off out of first class before Trish even thought he was one selfish gorg.
“What happened?” asked Boober.
“It’s nothing really.” Said Trish. I’ve seen your show and it was great I tell you, but since the creator is gone, I guess it’s sad that he never planned on anything new or different. If that guy came near to you. I would have smacked him. Then again violence would not solve anything. I’m glad I told him to leave.”
“Was that a gorg?”
“I would say that man I already met that sneers at us was a gorg. I believe that bad people are a bunch of gorgs. Well, if you’re not resting, then I will. Besides, it is going to be a long trip to New York.”
Then, she leaned back slowly to put her head down on the pillow and drifted off deeply to sleep dreaming about Fraggles or any other creatures.

I am totally out of new ideas, right noiw, because I didn't get any sleep last night. If there are any of you Mfans out fans going to respond, I will continue. If not, then I have no other choice but to leave the story alone. It's your choice or your loss.

 

[Twisted Tails]

Well, I finally watched the first season and second season , even though I saw some of the episodes twice. Now I believe I can get the characters to stay true I guess. I took way too long, because I had work to do that was putting behind on this story. No more spoliers, okay? Well, I hope you enjoy it.

Chapter 5

While everyone else was asleep, Jerry quietly rummaged through his bag and took out his postcard that had an airplane on the front and gave it to Gobo. We could imagine that he would be left-handed since he is still writing his postcard to his Uncle Matt.


Dear Uncle Traveling Matt,
I left Fraggle Rock and ventured into Outer Space. As my friends and I traveled further, we were outer and outer. We boarded a shiny creature and followed the silly creatures including our good friends, Karen, Kathy, Jerry, Steve, and Trish. The silly creatures the shiny creature an “airplane.” I tried to warn them, but I was stuck Hope all I swell back at Fraggle Rock.

Love,
Your Nephew Gobo


Gobo next quietly took the written postcard back to Jerry explaining to him to mail it to Arizona where Doc lives and he agreed before going to sleep as well. He knew that he was scared sometimes, but Jim was always a “fearless leader.” With nothing else to do, Gobo then took his gourd out of his small pack and strum his strings remembering what he used to sing when Doc was about to move to the desert.


Ain't it just the way it goes?
We pull the petals off the rose.
We never say hello to stay.
We always say good-bye.
We always say good-bye.

And ain't it just the way it seems?
We pull the petals off our dreams.
Our hearts can say we're here to stay,
But we always say good-bye.
We always say good-bye.

Weep for the day when a new friend comes your way.
Weep while you play for your friend will make you cry.
Weep for the night when he journeys out of sight.
Friends always tell you good-bye.
Friends always tell you good-bye.


“Why did he have to go?” he thought. “Well, I guess a little snooze wouldn’t hurt.”

Finally, Gobo felt tired and fell asleep thinking about the good memories he had with Jim. He wasn’t going to come back home with his family. He was probably up in a glorious place with Cantus, Waldolf, Kermit, Rowlf, and Dr. Teeth, plus many other Muppets he was with.

------ ------​

The Fraggles then woke up feeling a little bit better after a long dangerous journey that they begun. Their cabin-mates respected their privacy since they were going to Jim Henson’s funeral. After the plane landed safely without any chaos, the puppeteers and Trish escorted their Fraggle friends to the airport right after she helped them with the luggage. Although Gobo realized he was still in Outer Space he tried very hard not to think about his Uncle Matt, the Doozers, Gorgs, and the Trash Heap. He already learned that you cannot leave the magic from Marjory, but the problem was that his friends had to go to Outer Space and be at their friend’s funeral.

“Where and who is our escort?” asked Trish.

“Well, there he is now,” said Karen with excitement.

“Karen, you don’t mean Richard Hunt, do you?”

“Trish, I did mean him.”

“Oh!”

The elder man with a nice grin had some gray hair with a green jacket over his white shirt plus old jeans with brown shoes.

“Hey, everyone! It’s great to see you again and you brought the Fwaggles.. I mean the Fraggles along. My speech is sometimes a little bit of slurry. My name is Richard Hunt by the way.”

“You’re a Gorg?” asked Red.

“Not exactly Red, because well I was never dressed as one and I only did the voice of the bumbling fool. So, I am very glad to escort all of my friends. I can also carry your luggage, Trish if you don’t mind.”

“Not at all, Richard. My arms get really tired of hulling all of my stuff.”

The Fraggles and their silly creature friends exchanged looks before following Jerry and Gobo since they decided to be leaders.

---------------------------------- ​

“Where am I?”

The man’s eyes opened wide and then he worried about his daughter Trish.

“Mr. Johnson, it’s me Beth,” said the girl.

“What’s wrong with you,” he yelled. Where am I? Where are Trish and her mother?”

“Mr. Johnson please,” pleaded Beth. “I am trying to give you attention from me. My friend Trish and my sister Amy went to New York for Jim Henson’s funeral.”

“Was I in a car accident,” asked Mr. Johnson.

“Yes, but I’m glad you’re alright, but not for long. I had a bad dream last night and Death took you away, but I don’t want you to die, Mr. Johnson. It’s not fair!”

He remembered now that he woke up from his hospital bed. Maybe his wife was fine, but he was still very nervous about seeing Beth.

“I am feeling too cold, Beth,” explained Mr. Johnson. “I am worried ABOUT MY TRISH.”

“Mr. Johnson, don’t scream or-

“You don’t get it, do you,” interrupted Mr. Johnson. “Well, I am going to find my Trish right now.”

Hr unhooked himself carefully and walked slowly, but pacing back and forth and remembered why he worried about his daughter.

“I used to watch Frackle or Fraggle Rock with my daughter. Apparently, maybe I should not go after her. Maybe I have been protecting her too much. I have been an explorer like Traveling Matt or Gobo.”

“Mr. Johnson, will you please get back into bed. If you don’t, you’ll hurt yourself and Trish will never forgive you.”

He agreed with her and went back to his hospital bed before hooking himself back on if he remembered what he was doing. Then, she took out her medium-sized and was practicing a few chords.

“The world has gone crazy since Jim left us. I was his fan, Beth. I don’t understand why people are now cheering just because someone is dead. It’s supposed to be somber, not happy. Maybe a song will cheer me up.”

Before he was about to fall asleep, Beth strummed her guitar with a song she sort of remembered in her head.

Bring back the season.
Bring back the time.
Bring back the wonder that used to be mine.
Laughing and splashing, we lived in a glow.
Bring back the wonder we knew long ago.
Bring back the wonder we knew long ago.

Wind on our faces, and race on the lawn,
Life was so new it would last on and on.
I was in love with the soft river flow.
Bring back the wonder we knew long ago.
Bring back the wonder we knew long ago.


“Goodbye, Mr. Johnson,” whispered Beth. “I will see you tomorrow.”


Song Credits

Pedals of a Rose – from the last Fraggle Rock episode “Change of Address”

Bring Back the Wonder – From the Fraggle Rock episode, “Red’s Sea Monster”

Notes:
I made another tough request and I wanted Beth to sing “Bring Back the Wonder” to Mr. Johnson, Trish’s Father. She sings this song, because she knew in the past that people teased her and thought she was something else. The song does remind her of thinking about her childhood days when she was having fun with Amy and later her best friend Trish.

 

[Twisted Tails]

Yes, I got more Colleen and now moving on to what comes next. Let me know if you enjoy it or not.


Chapter 6

Two ghostly figures then appeared at an empty spot of New York City.

“Jim, are you sure it is safe that no one’s here,” asked Joe Raposo.

Yes and no for now,” answered Jim Henson. “I remembered what Uncle Deadly’s advice was if I were dead. The first thing was to have no contact to any living creatures including Fraggles. Second was one false move and I will no longer be with the Muppets in heaven. Third, I can’t have lasagna on the third Wednesday or week of March.”

“Then, what can you do?” asked Joe.

“I may to have to go into one of the Fraggle’s dreams,” chided Jim.

“Jim, I don’t get you, sometimes,” shrugged Joe. “Are you sure the phantom Muppet convinced you that you can only appear in their dreams.”

“Yes, Joe! Besides, what could happen if I was in their dreams? It could be Boober’s dream instead.

“Jim, are you saying that you want to be in a Fraggle’s dream. Hahahaha! Oh Jim, it is not being easy green or being you.”

“True, but I don’t want to break the rules or Death will be my worse case I ever encounter.

“Well, you’re the fearless leader Jim. You were afraid of death before you died on Earth.”

“I sometimes was, but I was a hardworker. I promise you that I will be in a Fraggle’s dream.”

“What if a different Fraggle shows up?”

“Well, then I will handle that crazy Fraggle or Sidebottom. Oh, I don’t want to say that name again, Joe. That was Jocelyn Stevenson’s idea.

“You mean the writer’s idea?”

“Yeah, but I hope Death doesn’t show up. Besides, Uncle Deadly works with Death.”

“How am I ever going to keep you out of trouble? Well, it wouldn’t hurt, but be careful.”

I’m fearless, Joe. Always careful and never hurt a fly.”

“You’re silly, Jim! After the dream, make sure you come back to heaven. Someone else might join you very soon.”

“Okay, Joe! You win! Who are you going to hang out with right now?”

“Don Sahlin! We’re discussing about the good times on the set of Sesame Street.”

“Those were good times. I was the playful Ernie after all.”

Then, Jim let out an Ernie laugh.

“I’ll see you when I see you, Jim.”

Then, Joe went back to heaven to find Don Sahlin, the man who made the Muppets of Sesame Street.

Back at California, Beth left the hospital with her packed guitar case in hand and went outside to wait for her mother to pick her up.

“What am I doing?” she thought. “I am like Boober or whoever the Fraggle is. I do wash clothes and cook. I should have been to New York with Amy. Wait a second! I’m germaphobic! Arghhh! What’s happening with me? I’m worried about Trish’s father and I hope he’s okay. I wish Amy were here. I used to be the fun girl I was.

She shook her thoughts out her head and felt like talking to herself.

“I am not fun at all anymore,” she said to herself. “I want to be a funny nice girl. Not act like a paranoid Fraggle. Yeah! That’s what I do and maybe start traveling, but Jim Henson was the traveler. I am not what I used to be.”

With nothing else to say, she quickly took out her guitar out of the case and started remembering a tune that Gob experienced when he decided not to be an explorer anymore.


Once I knew,
Just what to do
Once I knew my name.

Far and near,
The road was clear.
Living was a game.

But now I seem to walk in dreams,
And nothing stays the way it seems.

How I long for then.
Easy once again
Once upon a time I knew my name.

Maybe yes,
Maybe no.
Questions on my mind

Do I know which way to go?
The answer's hard to find.

I know that no one's made of steel.
I sometimes think that nothing's real.

And then I wake at night.
I can't tell wrong from right.

Once upon a time I knew my name.
Once upon a time I knew my name.


Beth now wondered where she was. “Why did my sister leave me here,” she asked herself. “I’m jealous, because she wants to see Gobo, Red, Mokey, Wembley, and…. Boober. I-I wanted to go to New York. She said no and I stayed home.”

Then, she let out a deep sigh while she was putting her guitar away into her guitar case. Since her mother did not pick her up. She made a dangerous decision to walk home. It took her fifteen to twenty-five minutes walking safely and cautiously all the way back to her house while carrying along her guitar suitcase with her. She was wearing an old white t-shirt and the same old bright blue jeans that she wore yesterday. She tried to open the door, but she realized that she did not take her keys. Felling so out of luck and miserable, she now feels like the world has now changed too much. Not only that made her sad, but also she didn’t like being a human or a “silly creature” as Fraggles described them.

“Jim,” she started before wiping a tear out of her eye. “I miss you, because well… I want the world peaceful. It’s not! I do not understand! Why was I born to be a human instead of being a Fraggle or a Muppet? Nobody understand me except Amy knows me what I really am. I dance my cares away. There are worried\s for another day. Let the music play. Down at Fraggle Rock!

“I didn’t see it on cable network. What’s the big idea? Fraggles? Silly Creatures? I have no clue. Oh, the world IS full of TROUBLES disease, and doom."

Then, she broke out into song singing,

Look at the world.
What can you do?

'Cause it makes you ache,
And it leaves you blue.

And I guess my heart could break apart,
With a long good-bye,
'Cause it makes you cry.

But I had a dream,
It was time to begin,
And every creature. . . (she sobs and then…)

(Beth imagines the Fraggles including Red, Gobo, Wembley, Mokey and Boober singing in the Great Hall right after hearing of Jim’s passing from postcards and letters from their fans plus the World's Oldest Fraggle) (Reference from fan-fic “He Will Never Be Dead In My Heart)

We were sister and brother.
We were part of each other,
And it made us one.
And it made us win.

“I am alone and it’s not fair,” she said to herself between sobs. “My mom and dad are not here. I wish you were here, Mr. Henson. Maybe they went to New York too and forgot all about me. What am I GOING to do? I can’t just sit here and have nothing else in mind.”

Feeling worse than miserable, she decided to cry herself to sleep on the porch swing with nothing else to do. She believed that tomorrow might be a better day so she can do something around her town while her friends are away.
